Abstract

A method is presented for enhancing search results by segmenting documents into smaller passages and utilizing those passages as the search unit. This method integrates the passage rankings from two search models to produce a new document ranking and arranges the documents accordingly. The ranking of document is also rearranged based on the proportion of passages taken from the same document versus the total number of passages in that document. The final search ranking system combines document-level and passage-level search rankings to rank documents. This method ensures that when conducting a passage search, the search results consider the general relevance of the entire document, which leads to better performance compared to searching only by document-level or passage-level searches.
